Since I was in middle school, I was made fun of because "I didn't belong there" I was one of the few mexicans in a white school. Now that I am old enough to know that being an outsider is what makes me special. Now i have achieved so many things that when someone tries to make me feel like i don't belong there, I know i do.

I really like how the title implies that you're standing but you're actually sitting, that you do not need to stand to assert your presence. Great photo!
